In two rows all participants lined up on Avenue Foch. |
 |
According to the police, there were 2,500 2cv's, instead of the licensed 500! Avenue Foch wasn't long enough to give room to all 2cv's; even on the Périphérique 2cv's were lined up. |
 |
In groups of 30 cars we took off at 3 pm. At 5 pm still 2cv's were starting from Avenue Foch. |
 |
Immediately the groups joined each other at the Place Carles de Gaulle, because there was a long queue soon on the Champs Elysées! |
 |
2cv rush hour! |
 |
The public waving and applauding at the long row of, sometimes strangely looking, 2cv's. |
 |
A riding home! Mind the birthday cake on the bonnet! Between the tea and salt and pepper this man kept his goldfish! |
 |
From the Champs Elysées to the 1st Grand Palais. |
 |
Time enough to take some nice shots, or to park your car and go to the MacDonalds! |
 |
Place the la Concorde: where did all these other cars came from? |
 |
The last station: la Tour Eiffel. So, what do you do? Just park your car and have a visit! |
 |
It seems everyone thinks the same... |
 |
And when the police arrives to ask us politely to move on, suddenly many cars seem to have a break-down... |
 |
How can you move in this crowd? |
 |
At least the 2cv doesn't have a millenium problem... |
